Hi all
I had my smear test on the 28th Dec, results came back last week of high grade - severe abnormal cells
I had my hospital appointment for the colp last Thursday. They found 3 areas that looked abnormal and told me I would have to go in for a small op to remove them
I got the date for this today and it is next week, the 25th
Should I be worried that everything has happened so quickly, or is this the norm?
Under 4 weeks seems a bit ‘swift’ from initial routine smear test to surgery?
Maybe I am just overthinking things!? Am a bit nervous as I have never had a GA before so that’s a big step in itself.
Does anyone know what the pain will be like afterwards? I’ve been told I will only be in for a few hours after the procedure?
I am guessing you will be in for LLETZ? I am going for one tomorrow under GA and I'm terrified. I can understand your panic. I have my last colposcopy December 14th. It was my follow up after my first dodgy colposcopy. I think it's good that they are acting so quickly, they want to get rid of it as quick as possible. Good luck next week.
I had my colposcopy 6 days after I received my smear results and had a loop / lletz biopsy done there and then. 4 weeks on still waiting for the results. I like was also high grade.
Think it's completely normal for things to move fast at this stage. It's thewaiting for results that hold things up! Arregghh!
